I'll tell; it's easy, quite.
Then, if no evil power be nigh
Wait till a yellow moon gets up
O'er purple seas by night,
And gilds a shining pathway
That is sparkling diamond bright
To thwart you, out of spite,
And if you know the very words
To cast a spell of might,
You get upon a thistledown,
And, if the breeze is right,
You sail away to Fairyland
Along this track of light.
by Ernest Thompson Seton
When I first laid eyes on the Queen Bee Collection from Pink Paislee, I just knew that I'd caught the breeze just right, for I was taken away to Fairyland in one gentle blow. Lilies and swirls, damask and polka dots in the prettiest shades of yellows, grays and greens.
It reminded me so much of one of my favorite Faerie portraits, that I knew I had to pair the two up. And what a perfect match they were. You all get to see a layout from me today and I think it is my favorite to date. It really screams Erika and I hope that you can learn a little more about me.
I created this layout for the Ms Scraptastic 2010 round 3 contest at Scraptastic. A layout of a passion we have. Mine {over and above crafting} is Faeries.
I used so many different Helmar products on this layout. First all of the paper was adhered to the 12 x 12 base using Helmar Premium Craft Glue, my new BFF. The Lace was attached using Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive. This adhesive works so beautifully on lace. Next, the photo was layered onto the cardstock with Helmar Quick Fix Adhesive Runner, perfect for photos. Some Helmar Gemstone Glue for the pearls and finally the queen of the ball, Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots for all of the dimensional elements.
That is a whole lotta Helmar, but each product works differently, and I know that all of the elements on my layout will stay put on my trip to Fairyland; Big gusts of wind or not
